The robust Alligator Water Pump Pliers from KNIPEX are engineered to save users’ energy and eliminate painful hand injuries while still being able to grip extremely strongly.

The slim design of the pliers, especially in the head and joint area, enables plumbing and heating installers to reach workpieces well, even when working in confined areas. The box joint makes the wrench very stable, but also means all models are significantly lighter than conventional pipe wrenches.

The gripping surfaces of the Water Pump Pliers have specially hardened teeth to enable continuously reliable performance, and the special self-locking jaw geometry is designed to grip pipes and nuts, allowing all available energy to be used to rotate the workpiece. Painful hand injuries are also prevented by the anti-pinch design of the handle area. They guarantee professionals the firm, reliable gripping of flat, round and polygonal profiles.

All members of the KNIPEX Alligator family have impressive energy saving and secure handling characteristics, are very strong and have a remarkable gripping capacity. The robust and practical adjustment mechanism means the tool can be adjusted easily to the workpiece and allows a comfortable gripping position.

With the 180, 250, 300 and the 400 models in the Alligator range, KNIPEX has an impressive range that covers work on pipes with diameters of up to 3 ½” and across flat widths of up to 95 mm.
